The day has come and I am finally happy to share that Iโve joined
@hypepartners
as VP of Strategy.
This role and this team was exactly what I was looking for after 6 years in DeFi.
While I will always be following and supporting that part of the ecosystem, this new adventure
Today was my last one with
@MakerDAO
. I really wish everybody I know to live once in a lifetime a working experience like the one I had the pleasure to live with all of these amazing people. Now ready for the next adventures ๐ฅ
I was so busy that I forgot, yesterday was my 1st anniversary w/
@MakerDAO
!
"When you feel you are the most intelligent person in the room, you are in the wrong room". I am DEFINITELY in the right room. Thanks to all my awesome teammates โค๏ธ
Today marks the end of an era. This is my last day at
@summerfinance_
, my team, somehow my family. I had the best time of my life working together with people like that for 3 long years (+2 at
@MakerDAO
)
All of them extremely smart, some of them true friends.
During the past weeks I've gone through several interviews processes. It was helpful to understand how/where the market is going and also where the projects are making mistakes. I will share my thoughts below for those interested.
Also creating some hype around my next move ๐
Little EOY personal news ๐
While always & forever faithful to my beloved Summer -
I've also joined the
@StakeCapital
fam where I'll help growing
@RektHQ
+
@stable_summit
๐ค
And also this year, I couldn't leave DeFi...or maybe it's DeFi can't let me goooo?
My non web3 hubby modeling in
#NYC
wearing
@pushprotocol
sweater,
@MakerDAO
jacket and

He stopped buying clothes when I joined the space. At least he asks about the projects heโs wearing.
Congrats

@NapulEth
Another nice initiative if you are a newbie! This events series is all about
#DeFi

Takeaways & Learnings after my first month working in an agency:
- your brain needs to be trained to switch from a topic to another and understand quickly otherwise ๐
- you need to care about the clients like you actually were part of their team to provide a good service
- you
Conclusion: I've signed a contract with a project that I've met randomly, where the position wasn't even open, the offer was not the highest I got, but the vibes were right, colleagues I met were amazing and the role super exiting.
I can't wait to start in September ๐ฅณ
